      The 2014 MotoGP bikes have once again been spied testing. Can these really be called spy shots, when it appears to be that Suzuki wants the bikes to be 'caught testing'! -

            This isn't MotoGP, this is Moto3. Where the regulations are much stricter. So there is less opportunity for ground breaking technology.

            Even then what info is there in the interview will just be the tip of the icerberg. Probably what is common knowledge in the paddock.

                  the reason is to keep a closer competition and in turn increase the entertainment. And we all know what's the result of this.

                          Will the interest go when they use similar cc engines from other manufacturers like Yamaha, Kawasaki, Suzuki, MV's etc ... I even feel WSS interesting ... I don't feel having different engines will make the entertainment go down :P

                            That is just one of the reasons.

                            The main reason is cost cutting. Dorna procures the CBR 600RR engines from Honda. Gets them prepped for Moto 2. And distributes them in a lottery system, to ensure that no one gets an unfair advantage.

                            The CBR 600RR used in WSS is more powerful than the ones used in Moto 2. A very interesting bit of information that i gleaned recently.
